Again from league 3. Div. III.2 Tidewater Texans

From what I experienced in my first game on the site... I would say that your punt script has every single punt end up 70 to 80 yards away... Not that that's a huge issue... It is noticeable when punting from midfield and your opponent starts 75 yards away (25 yard Punt)... You hold him to 3 and out, he punts from his 25 and you start 75 yards away (50 yard punt)... But a definite flaw when the following occurs...

1st-10-TID65 Pass Morris Wojcik pass incomplete to Elroy Baxley.
2nd-10-TID65 Rush Xavier Herraiz runs for 5 yards. Tackled by Garry Olivarez.

3rd-5-TID70 Rush Morris Wojcik runs for -2 yards. Tackled by Hilario Olivarez.
Punt Allen Odell performs the punt. The offense will start on 70 yards from the end zone.

Parker Pinatas 01:07
1st-10-PAR30 Pass Terry Spinner pass to Hilario Mounts for 17 yards for a first down!
1st-10-PAR47 Pass Terry Spinner pass incomplete to Sydney Polk.


From the point of punt 68 yards away to where the offense starts at 70 yards away.... A 2 yard punt... Not unheard of, but not expected...

Actually the punt in that case was 38 yards. And we already said that punting isn't the best at the moment (pretty rudimentary actually) and it will be "upgraded" for the next season

Edit: Ignore this post - first I can't seem to calculate properly these days and second read belowLast edited on 2008-09-07 at 9:02

Scratch what I said in the previous post (I'm just having that kind of weekend it seems ). It is a bug. At that distance they shouldn't be punting, We'll check it ASAP

Actually the punt did occur as set in the orders, which was set to attempt FG for <30... So at the 32, I expected him to punt... But I also expected a touchback, or a coffin corner kick, not a 2 yarder...

But, I understand this is on the table for future fixes... No worries...

One problem I noticed is this:

When having to punt while inside the oppositions field (let's say at thier 40/my 60), most of the time my opponent will start 70 yards away from the endzone. I witnessed that several times over the last few games. This should be a touchback (most of the time is in real football) or a pooch/coffin corner punt (starting within the 10), but never is.

As was mentioned many times punting is really basic at the moment. It will be improved for the new season.
